Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS):

a crystalline structure repeated in three-dimensions,

spanning the smallest possible area of its given boundary.

Diamond TPMS: 

A surface formed from the summation of trigonometric 'sin' and cos' curves

Diamond = sin(x)sin(y)sin(z)+sin(x)cos(y)cos(z)+cos(x)sin(y)cos(z)+cos(x)sin(y)cos(z)

Mechanical Benefit of Diamond Structures:

Compressive, bending-dominated geometry

Uniform stress distribution

Structural lightweighting

Vibrational Damping

Phase Transitions: manipulation of internal architecture

Controllability over the transition and nature of

open spaces (air) with solid surfaces (wall)

Allows for variations in weight, compressibility, and regional stiffness

Dual Diamond Running Midsole

Grid of air pores across the center of the midsole for cushioning and rebound

Top and bottom regions thicker for greater support and durability

The potential for 3D-printed structures to outperform traditional foam models

surely exists and is only yet to realized
